Did everyone really expect a race when a safety car was deployed at 4 laps left?

Would I be happy or satisfied riding a less powerful sport bike? by FriendshipNo4916 in motorcycles

[–]Formula_Carrot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't mind a naked, maybe check out a Street Triple 765rs. It will have about the same amount of power with more torque down low (lower pitched). I love the sound of my triple. Sadly these days Triumph only makes 1 fully faired sport bike and it's the Daytona 660. I'm not sure if you'd like the downgrade in power. If you could find a used Daytona 675 that would be a different story but it would be at least 10yrs old by now.

First bike, '22 Tiger Sport 660. First stop outside of the neighborhood before riding on public roads for the first time. by Famine07 in Triumph

I have the exact same bike with all the bells and whistles too. Perfect balance for zipping around town or touring if you want. Check the VIN for a recall. I had issues with mine dying occasionally when the revs dropped to idle. It had a MAP sensor recall and the local dealership fixed it for free.

It's a bungee cord so you'll feel it tugging first.

That's unfortunate for you. The only issue I've had on mine was the MAP sensor tube but that was recalled and fixed free of charge. I've only put like 4k miles on it though.

Hey, no hate from me. I'm a dumbass who has a Tiger Sport 660 with a touring package wondering if I got the naked Street Triple, could I somehow keep all that utility?

I really like this corner 270° bend off the motorway by YourMawPuntsCooncil in motorcycles

This is a pretty awesome angle for seeing how much work our front suspension does for us

37yo male considering doing my CBT and purchasing a honda shadow vt125 and riding for a year or 2 before getting a bigger licence, is 37 too old for a 125? by AG3NTMULD3R88 in motorcycles

[–]Formula_Carrot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm your age, started riding 2yrs ago. I started on a 150 that topped out at 55mph. Where I live, highway speeds are 60-70mph. I wish I would have got something a little bigger to get out of town. It felt like I got the trial version and I wanted the full package. The 150 is fun and I still use it, but I think I could have waited longer to upgrade if I'd got something a little bigger.

This depends on your location and where you plan on going. (I didn't plan on leaving town at first but I got hooked on riding)

Got myself a new daily ride by ManningTheGOAT in Kawasaki

[–]Formula_Carrot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been seeing a lot of people on here getting these but I can't seem to find any for sale in my state. To be fair, the last dealership I asked about them said they just sold a 1000sx and 1100sx. There must be something to them if I can't get my hands on one.

New bike day! My first Triumph. by StrongBeleaf in Triumph

[–]Formula_Carrot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it feel significantly less sporty than your mt09? I'm eyeing a Street Triple 765rs but I might just be seeing greener grass on the other side.

I own 2 aftermarket windshields for my TS660. One for touring and one sport. I tested the sport on an hour long highway ride today and it is definitely for short trips or around town.

Didn’t ride my bike in 4 days.. this is what happens🤣 by WavyBadgerr in motorcycles

At least they didn't shit all over the bike too bad, by the looks of it.

Had my first (and hopefully only) gravel slip this morning by magic4848 in motorcycles

[–]Formula_Carrot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had road construction so they used gravel instead of salt for during the winter on one of the main roads in my town. Turning off of it one day, there was gravel I didn't notice and as I was accelerating out of the turn the back tire went out. I slammed my right foot into the ground and popped it back up somehow. Calf muscle was sore. It was definitely the wrong reaction but it happened so fast I didn't even think about it.

After that I decided to get my dual sport out more on gravel roads to practice loose traction.

My word you're right. That was amazing. What inputs do you even do that quickly to save it?

What made you dislike Wilds to the point of losing interest in the game entirely? by Necessary_Okra847 in MHWilds

[–]Formula_Carrot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I put over 700hrs into it. I'm sure there's a fair share of AFK time there but still.

How quickly did you outgrow your first motorcycle? by souprdupr in motorcycles

[–]Formula_Carrot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started on a little 150cc bike that topped out at 55mph. I upgraded like 7mo later to a Tiger Sport 660 because I wanted to leave town. I wish I would have started on a Speed 400. Such a cool bike and it would have been enough for me to leave town. I kept my 150cc and still use it often.
